About us
Today’s competitive fundraising environment is not for the faint-hearted. Together we can develop fresh, innovative solutions to boost your fundraising in a rapidly changing landscape. THINK is the leading international consultancy dedicated to not-for-profit fundraising, marketing and communications. We’ve been working with charities in the UK and all over the world for more than 20 years. Before we joined THINK, each of us was a senior fundraiser for top UK charities or major INGOs. So we understand first-hand the challenges you face every day. Strategic consultancy - What do you want to achieve for your organisation? Greater efficiency and effectiveness? More income? Real growth? We want to work in close partnership with you to bring your vision for your organisation to life. And to help you meet new challenges with fresh solutions. We are used to working at every level, from everyday hands-on projects to blue sky ideas. What we bring to the table is original, intelligent thinking, a creative approach and rock solid, practical experience. Together we can achieve amazing things. THINK Research - If you need key insights and knowledge to drive your fundraising activities forward, then THINK Research is the ideal resource for you. Interim people - From time to time every organisation needs a little extra support. A key person leaves, a special project demands particular skills or there may be a strategy gathering dust you want to put into action. The problem is that experienced not-for-profit professionals don’t grow on trees. THINK’s sister company, THOUGHT Support, can access our extensive network of not-for-profit professionals to bring you exactly the right person for as long as you need them. Why not start a conversation with us and see how we can work together to achieve extraordinary things? *Posts by THINKers Becky, Matt, Emma & Jo

In case you missed it, the World Happiness Report for 2025 was released a few weeks back and confirmed what many of us in the charity sector already know: giving, volunteering, and helping others boosts wellbeing - not just for recipients, but for givers too. So fundraising doesn't just fund impact — it is impact in itself! What a great reminder, especially during tough times, that fundraising and supporter engagement are acts of social good. This year’s findings create a powerful case for building campaigns around connection, purpose, and kindness. Definitely worth a read 👇
The findings of World Happiness Report 2025, published today (20 March), reconfirm a fundamental truth: happiness is rooted in trust, kindness, and social connection. 🇫🇮 Country rankings 📈 Countries on the up 📉 Concerning trends 🤲 Benevolence trends 🥰 Increasing happiness 🤒 Reducing misery Take a closer look at some of the key findings from World Happiness Report 2025.👇

At THINK Recruitment, when we place a candidate in a new role our support doesn't stop there. Coaching for candidates has been part of our recruitment package since the start. Every candidate placed through THINK Recruitment has three sessions with transformational coach Matt Middler. This can help with employee retention - a fifth of new employees leave within the first 45 days, coaching can help avoid that turnover by: 👉 Providing stability through transitionary periods 👉 Supporting goal setting and developing plans to achieve goals 👉 Overcoming barriers and challenges We are proud to work with Matt and offer this to our recruitment clients as standard across all roles. We know from feedback that candidates see this investment by their future employer favourably, investing in them before they even join their new organisation. If you have any questions about THINK Recruitment, or need support with recruiting now please reach out to Jo McGuinness MInstF(Dip) or Jason Jederon for a chat. #coaching #recruitment #charityjobs

We're launching something new for legacy professionals… After 20 years of running trusted peer-to-peer groups across the sector, we’re thrilled to be launching our first ever Legacy Forum - a dedicated space for those working in charity legacy giving to connect, collaborate, and learn together. To kick things off, we’re hosting a free taster session on 28th April, focused on one of the most critical yet often under-discussed topics: How do you build a true legacy culture within your organisation? This session will explore key insights from our recent blog (bit.ly/42mqbGx) and create space for real conversation, sharing challenges, solutions, and perspectives with others who are leading and learning in the legacy space. Spaces are limited, so if you're interested in attending please get in touch with Emma O'Reilly or Amanda Warhaftig as soon as possible to secure your spot. No commitment, just an opportunity to see if the Forum could be a valuable space for you.

Legacy giving isn’t just a fundraising tactic - it’s a culture shift. With more than £4.1bn given through legacies last year and forecasts hitting £10bn by 2050, gifts in wills are one of the most vital income streams for charities. But here’s the challenge: too often, legacy giving sits solely with the fundraising team, underfunded and under-supported. In our latest blog post, THINK's Amanda Warhaftig and Emma O'Reilly explore how to embed legacy giving across your entire organisation - from securing leadership buy-in to empowering staff and volunteers, and making legacies part of everyday conversations. If you want to build long-term sustainability through legacy gifts, this one’s for you. Read the full post here: bit.ly/42mqbGx Want more insights like this delivered straight to your inbox?
